CONSTRUCTION NOTES

The sweater is worked in rounds from the bottom up and is worked with the ‘RS’ of the stockinette stitch out to avoid having to purl so much. After finishing, the sweater is turned with the ‘WS’ out.

The design has a wide rib section in the middle of the sleeves and wide rib at the raglan. The edges are cast-on using the Italian cast-on and bound off using the Italian bind-off.

RECOMMENDED NEEDLE SIZE

3 mm US2.5 needle for cast-on
